Overview
The ASCO X8262C213200 Red Hat solenoid valve is a direct-acting, normally closed 2-way general service valve engineered for dependable flow control across diverse industrial applications. This compact valve combines proven RedHat reliability with cost-effective design, suitable for pneumatic, hydraulic, and plumbing systems requiring automated on/off control.
Key Features
- Direct-acting poppet design with no minimum pressure requirement
- Mountable in any orientation; tight shut-off with smaller poppets
- Watertight solenoid enclosure, impact resistant and waterproof standard
- Welded core tube for enhanced structural integrity at rated pressures
- Tapped mounting holes on body for secure installation
- Available in brass and stainless steel construction options
